Methaqualone produces large increases in plasma corticosterone in rats. This effect does not involve a direct stimulation of either the adrenal glands or pituitary, nor is it the result of a significant alteration in the clearance of circulating corticosterone. Methaqualone may therefore be influencing brain mechanisms which ultimately regulate hypothalamic CRH secretion, although a peripheral site of action has not yet been ruled out.
甲喹酮可使大鼠血浆皮质酮大幅增加。这种作用既不涉及对肾上腺或垂体的直接刺激,也不是循环皮质酮清除率显著改变的结果。因此,甲喹酮可能影响最终调节下丘脑促肾上腺皮质激素释放激素(CRH)分泌的脑机制,尽管尚未排除外周作用部位。
